The Orlando Magic have completed their fifth practice of training camp as they prepare for their first preseason game against the New Orleans Pelicans. After a successful season last year, expectations are higher for the team, which is focusing on competition and communication during practices.

Head coach Jamahl Mosley is experimenting with different lineups to enhance team chemistry. Key players, including newcomer Kentavious Caldwell-Pope, are adjusting to their roles, while Wendell Carter Jr. reports that his hand injury is no longer a concern. The Magic are also evaluating players on Exhibit 10 contracts for potential two-way deals.
